Stocks and Securities

When you give stock or securities (stock, bonds, mutual funds), you may be eligible for a double tax benefit: 1) You receive an income tax deduction for the full, present, fair market value of the assets and 2) You may completely avoid capital gains tax on the appreciation of the assets. This is one of the easiest gifts to give and one of the most useful in accomplishing your philanthropic goals. 

Use this tool to donate stock so we can track your gift, send you the correct receipt, and you can get the tax savings you deserve.

If you would prefer to make your donation through your broker, access our transfer information from the link above to notify Food For The Poor of your gift.

Retirement Assets
A gift of your retirement assets, such as an employee retirement plan, IRA or tax-sheltered annuity, is an excellent way to make a gift. A gift of these assets can shield you or your heirs from taxes while funding Food For The Poor.

Personal Property
A gift of artwork, coins, antiques or other personal property can be an excellent way to support Food For The Poor. The tax benefits of the gift depend on whether Food For The Poor can use the property in a way that is related to its mission. Contact us to learn more about this type of gift — we would be happy to help you find the option that best fits your philanthropic goals.

Life Insurance

Turn Your Life Insurance Into Lasting Hope

Your life insurance policy can do more than protect loved ones — it can transform lives through Food For The Poor.

Why Donate?

By gifting a policy, you create a legacy that provides food, shelter, and hope to families in need. To make an impact on our mission today, irrevocably designate Food For The Poor as owner and beneficiary of an existing life insurance policy.

Your Benefits

  • Tax Deduction – Receive a charitable deduction for the policy’s value or premiums paid.
  • Leave a Legacy – Your gift continues helping families for years to come.

If your policy is paid up, you will receive an immediate income tax deduction based on the policy value. If your policy is not yet paid up, you will make contributions of cash to Food For The Poor to cover future premium payments. For any continuing premium payments you make, you will receive a charitable deduction in the year of the payment.

The Impact

Your policy helps Food For The Poor:

  • Feed families
  • Build homes
  • Provide clean water
  • Plan for future needs

A single donated policy can change countless lives.

How It Works

It’s simple to turn your life insurance into a gift of hope:

  1. Call us at 954-427-2222.
  2. One of our friendly policy specialists will contact you directly.

We’ll walk you through each step, making the process simple, stress-free, and meaningful.

Make Your Policy a Gift of Hope Today

When you donate a life insurance policy, you’re turning something you no longer need into something the world desperately does. Together, we can bring food, shelter, and hope to families who need it most.

You can name Food For The Poor as a beneficiary of all or a portion of your life insurance policy. With this gift arrangement, Food For The Poor will receive the proceeds of your policy when you pass away. You can change your beneficiary at any time.

This gift is easy to arrange — simply request a beneficiary designation form from your plan administrator.
